Recent epidemiological studies propose an association between parkinsonism and seizures, but the direction of this association is unclear. Focal brain lesions causing new-onset parkinsonism versus seizures may provide a unique perspective on the causal relationship between the two symptoms and involved brain networks. We studied lesions causing parkinsonism versus lesions causing seizures and utilized human connectome data to identify their connected brain networks. Brain networks for parkinsonism and seizures were compared using spatial correlations on a group and individual lesion level. Lesions not associated with either symptom were used as controls. Lesion locations from 29 patients with parkinsonism were connected to a brain network with the opposite spatial topography (spatial r =-0.85) compared to 347 patients with lesions causing seizures. A similar inverse relationship was found when comparing the connections that were most specific for lesions causing parkinsonism versus seizures on a group level (spatial r =- 0.51) and on an individual lesion level (average spatial r =-0.042; p<0.001). The substantia nigra was found to be most positively correlated to the parkinsonism network but most negatively correlated to the seizure network (spatial r >0.8). Brain lesions causing parkinsonism versus seizures map to opposite brain networks, providing neuroanatomical insight into conflicting epidemiological evidence.
